Discordean Melody

Macintosh's P.O.V

Nurse Redheart finished putting the bandages on Melody, and I quietly thanked her. "She mustn't use her wings in any way for a week. You'll be sure to tell her?" The nurse asked me. Nodding, I replied with my normal "Eeyup" and watched her go. The Crusaders sat by Melody, Scootaloo closer than any of them. Scootaloo looked up to Melody, I knew. Nopony knew what ever happened to Scoot's parents, but she was currently an orphan. Melody had told  Scootaloo that once she had gotten a permanent home for herself and Rest, she'd adopt her. Melody was just about to move into her new home, though I have a feeling that it may be a while now. I walked up to the bed Melody was laying on, and saw that Scoots was crying. "Please mommy. Please don't die..." I heard her whisper again and again. "Now, don't worry. She'll be fine. She's just gotta stay off ta wings for a bit." I told Scoots, and she looked up at me. "Y-you sure?" she sniffled. I nodded. Melody shifted and moaned in her sleep, and I felt a tightness in my chest. If I found Discord, I'd make sure that he paid for what he did.

I ran outside when I heard Applebloom's scream. "APPLEBLOOM?" I shouted, looking around. Then, out popped Discord from a flash of light, along with the Crusaders. He popped the bubble they were in with his eagle talon and let them fall. "Now that I don't have to deal with you, I can go along my own business." he said before disappearing in a flash of light. Scootaloo jumped up. "Big Mac! It's Melody! She needs our help!"

I shook my head from the memory and peaked my head outside. Applejack was dealing with some runaway potatoes and flying fries, but she seemed to have it handled. Besides, she told me to, "Be with your heart's Melody." I knew what she meant, though a part of me still had a hard time accepting it. The sun had risen, and fallen, quite a few times since we had found Melody, but since she had been seriously injured, her transformation has yet to take place. "Uhh... Where am I?" I heard melody moan, and I came back inside and walked up to the bed. "MOM... I mean Melody!" Scootaloo shouted, hugging her. "Huh? Oh, hi Scootaloo. Oh, hey girls." she said, noticing the other 2 Crusaders. They hugged her, and I smiled, glad to see she was ok. She looked up at me, and blinked. "Hello Big Mac." she said.

Melody's P.O.V

I felt a scorching pain, but the feel of Scootaloo hugging me made it easier to bear. "Hi Scootaloo." I said, then noticed the other Crusaders as they too hugged me. "Oh! Hey girls." I hugged them back, then looked up. Big Mac stood there, smiling sadly. Then it all came rushing back to me.

"Only you're mate can help you."

Big Mac simply walked through the bubble and picked me up.

"I think I love him." I said aloud to myself, though I knew nopony could hear me since it was a dream.

I blinked and stared at him. "Hello Big Mac." I said. "Glad to see your ok F.M." he replied. I nodded and wriggled out of the girls' grasps. I stood and jumped down onto the ground, attempting to stretch my wings. But that caused alot of pain, and they were bandaged, so I couldn't. "Nurse Redheart said you need to take it easy, and no using your wings at all." Big Mac told me. I frowned and walked to the door. "That bad, huh?" I asked, though it was more a thinking-aloud statement than a question. I pushed the door open and was welcomed with an apple pie to the face. "Discord." I growled. "There's been chaos and sightings of Discord all over Equestria." Big Mac muttered, walking up beside me. "Even worse than before. The elements are nowhere to be found." I walked outside, ignoring the rainbow colored rain. "And the princesses are nowhere to be found either?" I asked. "Eeyup."

Discord's P.O.V

I popped into the castle's meeting room, where Celestia's and Luna's statues stood. "You're niece has been quite troublesome you know." I said to them, since I knew they could hear me. "Yelling, screaming, even using the Royal Canterlot voice... reminds me of you Luna. Though, she was much louder than either of you ever were, and much more frightening. I think she has a demon stirring inside of her." 'A demon that could be very useful if on my side.' I thought to myself. A mischievous smile formed on my lips. I would get her on my side soon enough. But first, I had some chaos to wreak.
